Hi All,

If I'm running sub:

VBA Code:
strName = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & Format(Date, "DDMMMYYYY ") & "Document" & " " & ".xlsm"

And this file already exists in this drive path, is there a way for the sub to exit to prevent a new document from save overriding it?

Please let me know what you are thinking...

Thank you!

Excel Facts

Move date out one month or year
Use =EDATE(A2,1) for one month later. Use EDATE(A2,12) for one year later.

        MsgBox "File already exist", vbCritical
        Exit Sub
    End If
